Cheryl Warren, BACP, HCPC

Cheryl Warren is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 16 years of professional experience. She supports people who are dealing with family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, eating difficulties, and parenting-related stress. Cheryl aims to make the first step towards change feel manageable and clear. She creates an open, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on helping people understand what matters to them and on practical ways to cope day to day. Cheryl works alongside each person rather than telling them what to do. Over a decade and a half of practice has given her experience with attachment issues, communication problems and control issues. She has also worked with people facing separation and divorce, guilt and shame, and the long-term effects of narcissistic relationships. Those concerns often come with isolation or struggles with self-worth, and Cheryl helps people find steadier ground. She has supported people with panic attacks and social anxiety, as well as those seeking more clarity about life purpose and self-love. Workplace stress and difficulties asking for forgiveness are other areas she addresses in sessions. Her approach is practical and centred on the person in front of her. Cheryl invites clients to explore their goals at a pace that suits them. She offers compassionate guidance and helps people build skills they can use after sessions end. To begin, she encourages a simple first step of getting matched and arranging a time to talk.

How approaches and online work fit together

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on helping people understand patterns and learn practical skills. One common approach helps people examine how past relationships shape current feelings and behaviours, which can be useful for attachment issues and parenting concerns. Another approach emphasises learning coping strategies for anxiety and panic, teaching steps to manage symptoms and respond differently when stress rises.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try out methods, and adjust plans based on what the client finds helpful. This means techniques can be mixed and changed as work progresses so the therapy fits the person's needs and preferences.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and keep continuity when travel or work makes in-person meetings harder. Because specific session formats were not listed in the biography, confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful for shorter check-ins, regular weekly sessions, or when organising sessions around work and family commitments.
